Moses by Michelangelo
Exodus 34:30
Aaron and all the Israelites looked at Moses, and behold, his face was beaming with radiance. And they were afraid to approach him.
A ray of light or radiance in Hebrew is pronounced: “Keren”. The same word in Hebrew also means horn.Jerome’s Vulgate written in 382 of the Common Era, translated the Hebrew word Keren in this passage as “horns.”
Michelangelo’s famous marble sculpture, therefore, depicted Moses with horns on his head.
For centuries, even in America, many people thought that Jews had horns, due to Michelangelo’s depiction.
